At The Movies - The American

 

Don't see this movie.  It sucked...SLOWLY! 

I mean it.

It was a complete waste.  I want my $10 and 2 hours back.  

George Clooney plays a spy/assassin who is on his last mission while someone is trying to kill him.  His mission is to make a custom weapon for someone.  He befriends a priest, and a hooker.  Neither friendship is exciting.

First of all, this was the slowest movie I have ever seen.  Nothing happens.  Clooney spends half the movie driving up and down the hill to the village where he is staying, and the other half building a gun.  There is little dialogue.  It was BORING!  Sure, he built a nice weapon, but he's a terrible spy.  Terrible.  Someone is after him and he seems oblivious as to who is calling the shots and giving info about his whereabouts to the bad guys. 

Slowest movie ever.  Really.  

So save your money and pass on this one.  Don't even bother renting it.  Get the Ocean's Eleven movies instead if you need a Clooney fix.

Scarf Inspiration - How to Tie a Scarf

I have started getting into scarves.  They add that touch of color, and really complete an outfit.  I loved the way scarves look on other people, but when I got my first scarf I was at a bit of a loss.  How do I wear it?

There are lots of ways to tie a scarf.  Depends on the outfit and the scarf.  But here are some inspirations if you're a scarf newbie like me.  Or maybe just need some new looks.

What's your favorite way to wear a scarf?

 

...And We're Back!!!

Yes, I have been absent.  I spent some serious time unplugged.  Crazy but true. 

 First, I made some jam and tomato sauce.  Details and recipes will follow.

Then, we took full advantage of the the last days of warm weather by taking off for lots of hiking and swimming!

 What a great way to enjoy those last few hot lazy days.  And so great for my mental health!
